This exhibition examines the question of landscape by refracting it through the holdings of the Museum. Exploring culturally diverse, pan-historical, and perhaps unorthodox representations of landscape across media, Passages endeavors to pose more questions than answers about how we come to visualize our surroundings. By forcing us to reconsider our preconceptions about the genre, this exhibition demonstrates that landscape is a space within which we may plumb our understanding of our surroundings, as well as map our impact upon it. Artists featured include Claude Lorrain, John Ruskin, Dorothea Lange, and Edward Ruscha. Organized in conjunction with Visual Arts 272: “Landscape Painting.”
